I believe I have seen this letter twice in the past few years.  Once it
was stuffed into my box in the graduate student lounge, and later I saw a
similar-but-degraded copy in my mailbox at work (which caused a loud noise
from the corporation, I can assure you).  You may also remember an annoying
posting of a chain letter on ARPANET that caused a storm (since ARPANET was
then owned by DoD and is not supposed to be used for chain letters).

This letter bears much resemblence to the earlier ones I received, although
now it is maybe 30% of the length of the original and certain spellings have
been destroyed.  The dollar amounts and portions of some of the episodes
have changed a bit, too, but some of it is the same.  We can only hope that
the entire letter soon suffers critical bit decay and dies.
